Fire of the Dark Triad

Fire of the Dark Triad is the first part of a series by Asya Semenovich.

It tells the story of a distant and dark dystopian future, where evil humans of the Dark Triads (who were born with a DNA strain that made them incredibly dangerous) have caused untold misery and destruction for hundreds of years. In fact, so wicked were they that they very nearly destroyed the planet Earth.

The rulers of Earth had attempted to bring purity to the human race by dissolving those genes from future generations.

But something is wrong. Because without the creative spark of the DNA of the Dark Triads, civilisation has begun to falter and to stagnate.

An elite group, called the Headhunters, was employed to locate and recruit Dark Trads from its many colonies and bring them back to planet Earth.

But Nick, the most adept and skilled of the Headhunters, who was under the impression that he was only involved in a routine mission soon discovers that things are not always what they appear to be. He becomes enmeshed in a hidden conspiracy which, if it is allowed to continue unchecked, could change the human race forever.

He finds himself fighting powerful groups on two planets in an attempt to head off the catastrophe that is threatened. Whilst also trying to save the life of the woman he loves.

It's a well constructed novel which is both pacey and punchy.

As an interesting aside the novel is featured in a documentary film called Married to Math which you can learn more about here https://marriedtomath.com/reviews/. 

It's published by Dark Triad Books at £15.00 and is available from all good bookshops including Waterstones and Amazon, etc. It's also available in eBook format at £3.53.
